The American Doctrine of Judicial Supremacy is a book written by Charles Grove Haines and published in 1914. The book is a thorough analysis of the American legal system and the role of the judiciary in it. Haines argues that the American legal system is based on the principle of judicial supremacy, which means that the judiciary has the final say in interpreting the Constitution and determining the constitutionality of laws passed by Congress or state legislatures.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of the doctrine of judicial supremacy. Haines begins by examining the historical roots of the doctrine, tracing its origins back to the early days of the American republic. He then goes on to analyze the various Supreme Court decisions that have helped to establish and define the doctrine over the years.Throughout the book, Haines also discusses the criticisms that have been leveled against the doctrine of judicial supremacy, including the charge that it is undemocratic and that it gives too much power to the judiciary. He responds to these criticisms by arguing that the doctrine is essential to the proper functioning of the American legal system and that it serves as a necessary check on the power of the other branches of government.Overall, The American Doctrine of Judicial Supremacy is a comprehensive and insightful analysis of one of the most important principles of American constitutional law. It is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the workings of the American legal system and the role of the judiciary in it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
